Answer to Question 1

A
Studies have shown that older adults compensate for increased reaction time by increasing the accuracy of their responses. Older adults may choose to quit driving, avoid situations that require a quick response, and use ambulation aids (responses B, C, and D), but this is not a general reaction to increased reaction time. Older adults instead complete a task perfectly, drive slowly, and ambulate with care.

Answer to Question 2

B
Because many European countries have national health-care plans with socialized medicine, there is an expectation that the federal government is responsible for each person's health care. This is in sharp contrast with Americans, who are more individualistic in terms of their health care. Health care in the United States is seen as being reliant on family or extended family groups.
